Visa-Linked Stablecoin Firm Rain Valued Above $1.9B

The raise values Rain at $1.95 billion after 30-fold card growth in 2025, with the Visa-linked platform planning expansion across multiple continents.

Rain, a US stablecoin infrastructure provider and a principal member of the Visa payments network, has secured major funding to expand its global presence.

The platform raised $250 million in a Series C funding round led by the global investment firm Iconiq, to an announcement on Friday.

The round values Rain at $1.95 billion, bringing the company’s total funding to $338 million, following a $58 million Series B in August 2025 and another $24.5 million in March last year.

The latest funding featured several existing investors, including the venture arm of Michael Novogratz-founded Galaxy Digital, Sapphire Ventures, Dragonfly, Lightspeed, Norwest and Endeavor Catalyst.

Rain’s active card base jumped 30x in 2025

The new round follows notable growth at Rain last year, with its active card base increasing 30-fold and annualized payment volume by 38 times, co-founder and CEO Farooq Malik said in the announcement.

“Stablecoins are quickly becoming the way money moves in the 21st century, but adoption by users worldwide requires cards and apps that just work,” he added.

Additional investors in the funding included Bessemer Venture Partners and FirstMark, the announcement noted.

Rain targets expansion across the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa
